Intent : Worksongs is basically the end result of me trying to gain a better, more direct connection with my immediate surroundings. I look at the camera as a sort of divining rod. It helps lead me to things I wouldn't normally consider examining or give much thought to, like industrial processes or the way communites are evolving. I'm particularly interested in how elements of the old world are fitting in with the modern world, or in some cases aren't fitting in at all — essentially where our society has come from and the directions we might be headed.
